Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de rétrécissement de raie basé sur un réseau de diffraction, destiné à des lasers de rétrécissement de raie produisant des faisceaux laser haute énergie. Une fixation de réseau de diffraction en flexion est obtenue, qui élimine virtuellement la tension sur le réseau causée par une dilatation thermique différencielle entre le réseau et la structure d'enveloppe. Le réseau de diffraction, qui est constitué d'une surface en aluminium très mince disposée sur un substrat de verre épais à très faible pouvoir de dilatation, est fixé à une structure d'enveloppe en aluminium au moyen d'une fixation de réseau en flexion. Au moins un raccord souple est installé dans la fixation de réseau pour permettre la dilatation et la contraction thermique du substrat. Dans certaines formes de réalisation, la fixation comprend une plaque métallique, et le raccord souple est un connecteur flexible en H (124) muni de quatre pattes (126), qui est usiné dans la plaque métallique. Dans une autre forme de réalisation, l'objet de l'invention comprend deux connecteurs flexibles en H. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, le raccord souple est un assemblage à queue simple qui permet de faire coulisser une extrémité de la fixation relativement à l'autre extrémité.

Abstract: A communication system, such as a wireless CDMA system, detects markers with fewer errors by having filed units (55) transmit the markers at different power levels (e.g., 9dB for one marker and 11 dB for another marker). The difference in power levels of the markers allows the base station (110) to identify the request markers using alternative criteria with a low probability of error, where the alternative criteria may include comparing the markers to respective energy level thresholds, monitoring occupancy of time slots, occupancy of mutually exclusive code channels, or combinations thereof. For example, in one particular embodiment, a request marker, which is generally a high priority marker, is transmitted with higher power, which improves the probability of detection and reduces the probability of false detection of the request marker. 
A field unit transmits an indication requesting the assignment of traffic channels for data transmission. The indication is transmitted in assigned time slots and different indications are associated with different energy levels.

Abstract: A filter (9) is enclosed in and centred on a base tube (1) by longitudinal spacers (14). These are placed around the diameter of the tube to cut the annular space between the filter and the tube into sectors. Collection tubes (5) are arranged in the sectors and open at one end into the sectors.  The spacers contain openings (16, 17) so they interconnect hydraulically. The annular space between the base tube and the filter is closed at its two ends by rings (4). The collection tubes are fixed one one side of a ring so the internal pipe of each collection tube communicates with the other face of the ring. The ring contains means of closing the holes. The annular space is closed at its two ends by rings carrying the collection tubes. The openings in the base tube allow an effluent to flow inside the tube after passing through the filter and the collection tubes, and a sliding sleeve inside the base tube is designed to close the openings.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for synchronizing a receiver (1) with a transmitted code-modulated spread spectrum signal. In the method, at least one reference code (r(x)) is used, which corresponds to a code used in the modulation, and the frequency shift of the transmitted signal and the code phase of the code used in the modulation are determined. In the method, a correlation step is taken to form a correlation function matrix on the basis of the received signal and said reference code. A non-coherent search matrix is formed of said correlation function matrix. In the method, elements in said non-coherent search matrix are modified on the basis of at least one statistical property of the elements in said non-coherent search matrix, and/or high-pass filtering is performed before the formation of said correlation function matrix. The invention also relates to a system and a receiver in which the method is applied.
